dxvk: World of Warcraft Freezes/Hangs Patch 8.1.5

Many users appear to be having issues with the new major changes in the World of Warcraft engine.

I also have this issue. I am able to get into the game and login to a character for around 5 seconds before the game hangs and freezes my entire system.

System information

GPU: GTX 1080 Ti
Driver: Nvidia 418.43-5
Wine version: 4.2

Okay, thanks for testing. Also thanks to @ZeroFault for finding this, and Blizzard, please fix your game.

FYI, Blizzard took @doitsujin’s advice and fixed their game: https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/linux-client/119819/87:

Post from Rommax - WoW Developer referencing this github issue directly:

With the most recent 8.1.5 build (29732) the DX11 bug causing issues should be fixed and the workaround changeset for dxvk shouldn’t be necessary anymore, though it should be harmless to keep.

@MadMagnetic download dxvk-master.tar.gz, extract it, and in created directory, run command WINEPREFIX=/path/to/your/wineprefix ./setup_dxvk.sh install If you originally installed dxvk via Lutris, or by some other means, you probably need to find out how to install it from there.
